Joe Casey:
In a weird way, even though there’s still one more song, I see “Bridge and Crown” as the culmination of five albums worth of music and story. It talks about reaching the end of the line, the little dreams that keep us going, the contract we have with ourselves and the contract we have wi...

To drive our bodies all down the line
Till there's nothing left
Everybody knows
We're holding on to little dreams
To drive our bodies all down the line
Till there's nothing left
But the Bridge & Crown
